Well I do love my post lady who comes to my little flat. She always leaves my packages when they won't fit through the mail slot, so in my mind that makes her my best friend!
Today, she dropped off a book I ordered. Oh yes, did I mention that I am not buying anything for the next little while? Well I bought a book.
It's Lene Holme Samsoe's Essentially Feminine Knits. And it was Essential - see, its right there in the title... The images on Ravelry aren't complete, but the Amanda cable cardigan I blogged about the other day is in this book, so I thought, "What the hell..."
And today, to abate my sickness this book has arrived. And one picture that is not on Ravelry that I just fell in love with is this one:
I don't know how crazy I am about the hood, but the rest of it is amazing! I could modify the hood into a cowl neck or something maybe! Or, use the stitch pattern for the front of an open cardigan? First, I must finish the Cobalt, use up some of my ridiculous stash, and make some christmas goodies. And only then I can consider my next jumper!
